Hi. I had a good weekend until around 10:00 last night when my dh and I were lying in bed watching some tv and bam, I had the worst panic attack so far. It took us thirty minutes to get me back to normal. I don't know how much more of this I can take. I know that the Tegretol hasn't gotten in my system good yet, I understand that. But I just can't take anymore. Then this morning, I felt a migraine coming on so I took the medicine and took a nap with my baby. I feel better now but I worry which doesn't help at all. I also read that all of this turmoil can cause premature labor. How am I not suppose to worry? I told my dh that two kids is the limit for us because I don't think I can go through all of this again. Is that selfish?

Thanks for listening. I needed to get that out. I'm just trying to live moment by moment. I hear my baby stirring, gotta go.

Missflip -- I chose not to even have a second, because one is just about more than I can handle. We all need to understand our limits. You aren't selfish. Becoming a mother is the opposite of selfish. I'm sorry you had such a bad attack. Hang in there, the medicine will get in your system soon enough.
